I received lot of questions about crochet baby girl dress pattern. So decided to rewrite the pattern. Click here to view old pattern. Please leave a comment what you think about this new crochet baby girl dress.

You can use any size hook to obtain the gauge.Stitches, abbreviations(MC) = main color(CA) = color Ach = chaindc = double crochethdc = half double crochetsl st = slip stitchfpdc = front post double crochetsk = skipbeg = beginingcorner (dc) st = 2 dc ch 3, 2 dc in same stcorner (hdc) st = 2 hdc ch 3, 2 hdc in same stThe pattern works top to bottom and used pink color and white color to make a girly look. After finishing 11 rows the skirt begin. If you are not satisfied with length, you should work more rows from last row before edging.

Hi..Ashely, after crochet last dc and ch 1 of row 13, sl st to beginning ch 3 (to first ch 3 of row 13). Now you start to crochet in round. So do not turn. Now start row 14 with ch 3 and follow the instruction, after crochet last ch 3 (be sure there are 76 ch-3 spaces) in row 14. sl st to beginning ch 3 (to first ch 3) of row 13 or it mean previous row. I think my answer will help you, If you not please contact me again. And I have found a mistake in row 14. It should be correct “last ch 3 sl st to beg ch 3 of previous row”. I’ll update it. Thank you very much.

Do you think it would work if I continue to go back n forth because I want it to be adjustable.

Hi.. Ashley. Sorry about my late. Here is the answer for your question. I think this will help to you.
If you want to turn the work in each row, from rows 13. Do not sl st to beg ch 3 in rows from 13. After crochet last shell st and ch 1, crochet dc in last ch-3 space and turn the work. In next row, *ch 3, sl st to each ch-space* repeat to end and turn.

Hi.. Maria.. I can’t understand properly what you meant because I don’t know Italian so I had to translate. I think you want a larger size of this pattern. I can’t say it’ll work. If you want to crochet larger one, change the yarn size. I used fingering yarn type, (22 Wrap Per Inch) for this. You can choose sport weight yarn. No need to change the pattern instruction.
This link will help to you, find out the yarn size http://www.craftyarncouncil.com/weight.html

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE REWRITE PATTERN FOR THE SCALLOPED BUBBLE GUM DRESS THOUGHT I WAS LOOSING MY MIND FOR I COULD NOT GET IT TO COME TOGETHER. HOPEFULLY AFTER I RESTART IT AGAIN WITH NEW PATTERN IT WILL BE OK

I am having trouble with skirt after row 12, you said to work in the round, what do you mean. I have tried the shell and mine does not come out looking like yours. Also if I am only to have 19 shells that does not take me around the top? Help please .

Hi Carol, I suppose you did the upper body part with shaping neck and armhole. After crocheting row 11, shaping neck and armhole will finish. Now, there only remain skirt part to crochet. Work in the round means no turn after row 12. In row 12, did you finish with slip stitch to the beg ch 4 of previous row and be sure you have 34 ch-4 spaces by counting. 2dc, ch 2, 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc in one ch- space, count as a shell st in this pattern. Please look at the graph above.

so i tried the row 1 and it does not look like yours am i doing something wrong?

Hi Evette, Did you crochet corner st ?. See in stitch/abbreviation part. If you did it, don’t worry. You will just get your first row like a strip. It’s ok. Keep going, then you have a top part of the dress shape like on 1st chart.
